    Excellent Review of Dale's Cone and its Bastardizations
    Tags: Tag One, Tag Two
    Judith Gustafson just left an excellent comment on an earlier blog post. She let us know about a presentation at the Association of (AECT) Educational Communications and Technology conference in 2002. Click here for the PPT presentation by Tony Betrus and Al Januszewski of the State University of New York at Potsdam that does a great job of describing what Edgar Dale meant to convey with his cone, AND shows numerous examples of how the cone has been used improperly with the numbers added. Here is my original post on this.

    An interview with Cathy Moore
    Tags: Tag One, Tag Two
    I met Cathy Moore when I was in Indianapolis last year, having followed her blog Making Change - ideas for lively elearning since its inception. Cathy's blog is aimed fairly and squarely at instructional designers, encouraging them to 'dump the drone' and create more lively, powerful e-learning. Cathy's posts are beautifully written, imaginative and nicely presented, which makes me believe she probably does a pretty expert job as a designer. So, Cathy volunteered to be the subject of my third Webcam Interview, which means this probably constitutes a series. Expect to see number four, ...
